Helicobacter pylori has been a controversial subject when it comes to rosacea.
Most authorities on rosacea dismiss Helicobacter pylori's role in rosacea just
as much as they dismiss demodex' role in rosacea. However, the number of
research articles appearing in medical journals about Helicobacter pylori's role
in rosacea is significant. A recent report investigated Helicobacter pylori's
role
in rosacea in seven patients with ocular rosacea (subtype 4) who "at the same
time,
had clinical and serological evidence of H. pylori infection." The results of
treatment?

"Six weeks after completion of the treatment, all patients experienced
improvement of their rosacea symptoms. Ocular disease responded better
than cutaneous rosacea."

It has been reported that 50% of all rosacea patients have ocular rosacea. This
number may be higher than assumed. More studies need to investigate how
many rosaceans have ocular rosacea. I have written a chapter in my new book,
Rosacea 101, Chapter 9, Ocular Rosacea which discusses this subject and some
treatments used. Appendix C discusses Helicobacter pylori which is basic
rosacea 101 knowledge for rosacea newbies to know about.
